Online Booking Terms and Conditions

At Out2Safari, We strive to deliver a a memorable African safari experience in all the enchanting African destinations we offer. Travellers must however understand that they are visiting developing countries and must be prepared to deal with unusual occurrences, local inadequacies, and unpredictable events.


If you are flexible, curious about new people, places and environments, and have a positive attitude, we welcome your participation. African Adventure travel is rewarding if you can embrace the inherent challenges. Our ultimate goal is to ensure that you get the most out of your travel experience with us! If you have any particular questions or concerns, feel free to contact us. We will be delighted to advice appropriately!

We will arrange to provide you with various services which form part of the holiday you book with us.
When you make your booking you will be advised of any increase / changes to the prices or program
we may have quoted you earlier. On your acceptance, we will proceed to confirm the booking to you
accordingly.

We hope and expect to be able to provide you with all the services we have confirmed to you at the time of booking. However, as we use the services of independent suppliers such as Airlines, Hotels etc over whom we have no direct control – it is therefore possible, that on occasions changes do have to be made, and we reserve the right to make these changes. Most of the changes are minor but if we consider it to be a major change we will Endeavour to advise you or your Travel Agent before you depart. We consider a major change one where there has been a significant change of resort, a change of accommodation etc to that of a lower category and /or price, a change of flight time of more than 12 Hours and a change of departure airport. In the case where there is a major change before your departure, we will offer you alternatives. Important Note: We will not be liable for any compensation for changes which arise as a result of situations outside our control e.g technical or maintenance problems with Air Transport which can cause rescheduling or cancellation of flights by an Airline, the alteration of the airline or aircraft type, war or threat of war, civil strife, industrial disputes, natural disasters, bad weather, terrorist activity.

We do not control the day to day management of your accommodation and it is possible that we may
be advised that the reserved accommodation is not available when you arrive at your hotel. If this
happens we will endeavour to provide accommodation of at least the same standard in the same area.
If the only accommodation of a lower standard is available, we will refund the difference.

We reserve the right to cancel your holiday if the cause is a reason outside our control and also
deemed to be a threat to your safety e.g. war or threat of war, civil strife, industrial disputes, natural disasters, bad weather, terrorist activity. In the circumstances of “Force Majeure” we are not liable to pay any compensation or otherwise be responsible for any expenses you may incur. We will however first offer an alternative holiday of comparable type to another of our destinations. If the alternative offered is at an additional cost, the difference will be payable by you. If the cancellation by us arises out of non-payment or late payment on any part of the cost of your
holiday, or for alterations you may request in bad time, then cancellation charges will apply

We certainly hope that we can settle all holiday complaints amicably, however should this not be the
case, you may refer any dispute relating to this contract to an arbitrator mutually agreed to by the two
parties. A complaint should be made within 2 months of the end of the holiday.
